Those Who Wish to See the CRCNA Affirm Same-Sex Marriage Ignore Synod 2022 at their Peril
Clay Libolt’s blog is one of the more important things to track in the ongoing conversation about the Christian Reformed Church and same sex marriage. He recently posted this piece. This is a repost of a posting of mine on … Continue reading
Ideals before Prohibitions
This was similar to a “compromise” that I suggested at the start. It’s in practice exactly what the status quo in the CRCNA is now. There are now likely, quietly, people who are members and even office bearers in the … Continue reading
More A1B Conversations on Voices
I chose “marriage equality” for a reason even though a good number of my conservative listeners objected. There are two motivations I can see in the CRC for changing the status quo: I remember the heartfelt speech by Jack Roeda … Continue reading

Two Competing Ideals
I appreciated Paul’s writeup of the contra overtures. https://www.christiancourier.ca/five-major-concerns/ I can very much understand the angst and even panic among many who reasonably anticipate the complete passage of the HSR as hurtful and a slamming of the door on many … Continue reading

Plotting Mile Markers on the Way to the Eschaton
The little back and forth over “plotting” was interesting. You plot a course, you plot mile markers, you plot a map. This came over the Internet. https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/05/us/california-judge-martin-jenkins-trnd/index.html Relevance realization is the core of one of my conversation partners John Vervaeke … Continue reading

We need to do better than weaponized “listening”
I appreciated Doug’s post on his experience with gay kids. It very much tracks with what I’ve seen. While I hear a lot of complaint from affirming straight and gay about churches that maintain theological positions and polity practicies that … Continue reading

Confessional Conversation Again
If you recall in 2016 (and the years before) I made a case that the CRC needs to have a far deeper conversation BEFORE we talk about WICO, SSM, IVF, Cohabitation, legalized pot, prostitution, pornography, polyamory, power, senior-non-church-weddings, marriage, confessionalism … Continue reading
The Woke are the Holiness Movement of the New Atheists
I wrote this for CRC-Voices responding to a Sacramentalist This morning I was thinking about a possible video about wokeness and secularism. In my conversation with James Lindsay he observed that the woke split and are trying to destroy the … Continue reading
Women and the Glass Ceiling
nteresting piece in the NYTimes. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/21/sunday-review/women-ceos-glass-ceiling.html I’ve now gotten through the two courses Jordan Peterson has on line. In this video he goes into a lot of the work he’d done in corporate hiring and the psychological instruments he developed to … Continue reading

Evangelical lostness at Wheaton
Evangelicalism is a sort of thing that isn’t supposed to have a center, a hierarchy or an authority structure but yet we are supposed to act like it does. It’s the large projection of classic pastoral availability. You can have … Continue reading →
